Excuse me? It’s not twisted logic at all. The protestors didn’t kill the whale they used, which is their point. You might disagree with them but their argument makes sense (from their point of view).

[Fierce Allegiance]

That is a lovely opinion for you to have.

In order to credit their point of view I have to have some respect for it. Personally I have a big problem with respecting the point of view of someone who is basing their policy arguments on emotion rather than fact.

They are entitled to their opinion, and I am entitled to think them fools for holding it.

What has happened to the world that we no longer try to differentiate between good ideas and bad, sound logic and foolishness, reason and emotion? The greenpeace people are a minority of fools who believe themselves more enlightened than we unwashed masses, and therefore deem themselves the only ones worthy of setting a policy.

Nonsense.

Yep. I disagree with them. Many things make "sense" to them from their point of view which won't hold water in the real world.

Without getting gushy over cetaceans because they breathe air, the fact remains that populations of cetaceans, like any other animal, can be harvested and conserved, and studied in the process to keep the herd healthy. No different from hunting deer or rabbits, or whatever.

As for the meat ending up in restaurants, I should hope so. It is a way to fund the research, and keeps the meat from going to rot. That would be a waste, which I find abhorrent.

Because whales die acceidently, they shouldn't be killed.

Captain Logic not steering that boat.
